Both Democrats and Republicans said they plan to have election monitors at many, but not all, polling stations. A similar announcement about dedicating an assistant U.S. attorney to Election Day problems may come out on Tuesday.

Missouri’s 2016 primary saw two cases of voter problems, both in the St. Louis area.

On Election Day, Missouri voters will also be asked if they want to start requiring voters to show government-issued identification.

Jay Ashcroft, Missouri’s Republican candidate for Secretary of State, wrote the amendment that’s on the ballot. He said he doesn’t know if vote fraud is a widespread problem, but requiring voters to show photo ID is a way to help prevent it.

In Kansas City Monday, Ashcroft said he disagreed with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s claim that the election is rigged.

“Do I think there’s a cabal of 10 or 12 people who’s deciding who’s going to win each state for president? No,” he said.

More than 130 million votes are expected to be cast for president this year.
